If i connect my 818 directly to my Microsoft Surface i5 laptop (Current Roon Core)via Ethernet to USB converter, it is very stable...with only the MC200 dropping off from Roon. (the MC200 is still connected to a switch down stairs).
Do you have any device other than the Surface to test core on? I've got a 4GB i5 Surface tablet and dismissed that to run Roon Core right from the beginning (largely RAM size and wifi). I do run it as a remote and never noticed any issue, however that is not streaming audio. I'm not sure that wifi is helping matters here especially if you are using your ISP's hub/router as a wireless access point rather than something like an Apple Airport Extreme.
If the issue is confined to MC200 and dropoffs is occasional (>~1 per day) is to temporarily assign the current IP address assigned to the MC200 as a static within the MC200 itself (quick and dirty but should be ok as long as its just for a few days) if you don't know the safe range of static IP addresses to assign. If using DHCP for the MC200, reports (confirmed on mine) that MC200's use to forget their IP address after 24 hours and not successfully renew its lease which could cause problems - I run mine on a static IP addresses and problems went away.
